Everything in the case looked delectable, but we decided upon a large peanut butter-caramel cookie that was still warm from the oven -- and was it ever good. It was made even better with a light sprinkle from the salt shaker.

The patio provided a relaxing space to sit, sip and snack as we watched the denizens of this lovely neighborhood stroll by.

Barrio is situated inside the Avant Life Church and serves very unique coffee blends from some of the best coffee roasters in Canada. I grabbed a flat white made with their Raspberry Candy espresso and it was honestly one of the best cup of coffees I've had!

I would no doubt make the drive to North Vancouver from East Vancouver again for this quality cafe! The barista was also super nice and fun to talk to! The cafe offers a very homey atmosphere and would make a fantastic study spot!

I arrived around 930am without a reservation and although it was pretty empty inside, most seats were reserved. Luckily they were able to squeeze me in before the next group came. There were a couple dishes I wanted to try and on the server's recommendation, I went for the lobster eggs benedict. It was served in a beautiful presentaiton of bright colours and a generous serving of lobster meat. The spring salad was the perfect side as it cut through the richness of the hollandaise and the perfectly poached runny egg. One of the previous reviews noted that the poached eggs in the shakshuka were overdone, which made me hesitant to consider that dish, but next time I might try that since the benedict eggs were perfectly cooked. Parking was super easy at the time of day, pay street parking in the surrounding blocks. Will definitely be back to try the other dishes!

Her Iced Mocha was very nicely done. I found my Avocado Toast a bit on the salty side, and wasn't impressed with the egg that sat upon it. Runny yolk is what I like to see, but the yolk in this egg was very dry. They have a nice selection of cakes in their display case. I might come back here again to have some tea and dessert but don't think I'll bother with their savoury foods again. Service: Good Parking: Free parking on the street

Stepping into others' imprinted snow footsteps trying not to slip and fall onto the newly fallen snow, we made it into Cafe Crema in West Vancouver. The first thing with this place that gets you is the vibe. Mood lighting, lovely high tables and plenty of space. You can sit there, and daydreaming in this place is highly encouraged preferably with a glass of bold red and a slice of Margherita Pizza. I didn't really know what I wanted, which rarely happens, but this was one of those special occasions where you just let spontaneity take over. I was going to just have a coffee, but as I approached the register area to order my Americano, I kept seeing this glimmer in the corner of my eye. It was quite bright, but just a glimmer, so I looked over and it was just this muffin sitting there in the display. I asked the cashier what muffin that was, and I was told that it was the Vegan Banana Chocolate Muffin. "Vegan?" I asked. He said, "Yup." I almost walked away trying to find something else, but the damn thing looked so good. So, reluctantly I decided to try a Vegan Muffin. I said to myself, "well, what's the worst that could happen? I'll just throw it out if I don't like it." That winking-luring Vegan muffin was so good that it actually trumped many of the dairy based muffins I've had in the past. I'll tell you how and why. First, it was rich, creamy, dense, moist on the inside and crispy on the outside. You could taste the Cocoa and hint of Banana and nuts throughout. As much as all the ingredients together gave the muffin its wonderful taste, you could also taste each component individually. I don't have a sweet tooth at all, and it's rare to find me ordering desert or eating muffins. I ate this damn thing like I just discovered the taste of sweet for the first time. Between this awesome Vegan muffin, the great Americano and this cozy little lamp on the table and the beautiful glowing white snow on Bellevue Drive, this indeed was a memorable experience and a one time love affair with a Vegan Muffin. (No, I hadn't smoked anything that day.)
